"Jim Dent, author of the New York Times bestselling The Junction
Boys returns with the remarkable and inspiring story of one of the
biggest comebacks in college football history."
In the 1960's, Notre Dame's football program was in shambles.
Little did anyone know, help was on its way in the form of Ara
Parseghian, a controversial choice for head coach--the first one
outside of the Notre Dame "family." It was now his responsibility
to rebuild the once-proud program and teach the Fighting Irish how
to win again. But it was no small task.
The men of Notre Dame football were a bunch of unlikelies and
oddballs, but Parseghian transformed them into a team: a senior
quarterback who would win the Heisman Trophy; a five-foot-eight
walk-on who would make first team All-American; an exceptionally
rare black player, who would overcome much more than his quiet
demeanor to rise to All-American, All-Pro, Hall of Famer, and to
the Minnesota Supreme Court. Parseghian would change everything,
from the uniforms and pads to the offensive strategy. It would be a
huge gamble against great obstacles. But Ara Parseghian had that
look in his eye....
" New York Times" bestselling author Jim Dent chronicles one of the
greatest comeback seasons in the history of college football. Once
again confirming his position as one of the top sports writers in
the country, Dent brings the legends of Notre Dame football to life
in an unforgettable story of second chances, determination, and
unwavering spirit.
